How to Select a Trailer Hitch
Why a full-size Jeep SUV usually needs Class 3 thinking — and why the badge on the hatch still has to match the CURT application card.
Watch on YouTube →Shopping a trailer hitch for a Jeep Wagoneer or Grand Wagoneer in Canada? The nameplate covers more than one vehicle, and CURT’s published aftermarket coverage is narrower than the badge suggests. The custom Class 3 card CURT lists today is written for the battery-electric Wagoneer S — not the gas Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer three-row SUVs that many Canadian shoppers actually drive. That Wagoneer S hitch is not on our Shopify shelf yet, and we do not publish Wagoneer year landers. This guide stays clear about which generation the catalogue covers so you do not buy the wrong story.
All four videos are from the official CURT YouTube channel (@curtmfg). There is no dedicated CURT Wagoneer or Grand Wagoneer gas-SUV hitch install in our verified embed set today, so these primers cover selection, technique, wiring, and ball mounts. A Grand Cherokee film is a different vehicle — we do not pretend it bolts to a Wagoneer.

Watch on YouTube →General install habits. When a Wagoneer S hitch lands on this shelf, finish with that part’s sheet — not a Grand Cherokee film.
Watch on YouTube →Useful context while Wagoneer-specific wiring is absent from this catalogue pass.
Watch on YouTube →CURT’s published Wagoneer S Class 3 card uses a 2 inch opening — the common size once a hitch is stocked. Factory receivers on gas Wagoneer trims need the same shank-size check.
Watch on YouTube →On CURT’s own catalogue, CURT 13637 is a Class 3 hitch with a 2 inch receiver written for listed Jeep Wagoneer S years (battery-electric). Hitch-side numbers on that card sit around 3,500 lb trailer and about 525 lb tongue. Jeep’s published tow and tongue numbers for your powertrain and package still win. That hitch is not listed as an active product on Lots of Parts today.
We did not find a matching CURT custom Class 3 aftermarket card on this store — or in our CURT application pass for this guide — for the gas Wagoneer or Grand Wagoneer three-row SUVs. Many of those trucks leave the dealer with a factory tow package and receiver already on the bumper. That is useful for owners, but it is not the same as us inventing an aftermarket SKU. If your door sticker and owner manual describe a factory hitch, shop ball mounts, wiring, and controllers against that factory tube — do not assume CURT 13637 is your part.
| Item | Status on this store |
|---|---|
| CURT 13637 Class 3 hitch | Published by CURT for listed Wagoneer S (electric) years, with a 2 inch receiver. Not listed on our Shopify catalogue in this pass — no product link here. |
| Gas Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer aftermarket hitch | No CURT custom Class 3 SKU is active on this shelf for those gas three-row models in this pass. We are not inventing one. |
| Wagoneer-specific wiring | No Wagoneer-labelled four-flat or seven-way harness is active on this shelf in this pass. |
| Year landers | No hitch-20xx-jeep-wagoneer pages are live. We are not inventing those URLs. |
Wagoneer S is the battery-electric model CURT’s 13637 card is written for. Different platform, different CURT application. Do not order it for a gas Wagoneer hoping the name is close enough.
Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer are the gas (and related) three-row Jeeps most Canadian tow shoppers mean when they say “Wagoneer.” Check the door jamb sticker and the owner manual for the factory tow rating and whether a receiver is already installed. If you already have a factory 2 inch tube, you may only need a ball mount, wiring confirmation, and — when the trailer asks for it — a brake controller conversation. Start with tongue weight, hitch class, and do I need a brake controller.
